When u are in Sapa, i would say its a MUST to go trekking! u will know why later.. hee.
Given that its a 1st time experience for Von & I, we chose the easy trekking (for the 2D 1N stay) but i must say its NOT easy at all.
1st Day - 3-4hr trek from Sapa Mountain top to Cat Cat Village
2nd Day - 6hrs from Sapa Mountain top to Lao Cai Village
It was really foggy and drizzling and cold wind was constantly blewing at us so i would say its not a very good experience. Plus the hotel rented me a pair of boots with cracks below!! WTF! Socks was soaked, feet frozed while i was trekking up in the mountain.
Terrible.
Don't Freak out please...
Rice wine making family.
After 3hrs of trekking in the drizzle and cold (ard 7degree), i chose to hire a motocyclist to take me back to the hotel while the rest con't the way back.
Up Next... Shall blog about the food fare up in the mountain & Day 2 trekking which was alot more interesting!!
